TLDR
A mathematical modelling approach to adult human metabolism that simulates energy expenditure adaptations during weight loss and presents a web-based simulator for prediction of weight change dynamics, showing that the bodyweight response to a change of energy intake is slow.About:

The global obesity pandemic: shaped by global drivers and local environments

TL;DR: Unlike other major causes of preventable death and disability, such as tobacco use, injuries, and infectious diseases, there are no exemplar populations in which the obesity epidemic has been reversed by public health measures, which increases the urgency for evidence-creating policy action, with a priority on reduction of the supply-side drivers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Health and economic burden of the projected obesity trends in the USA and the UK
TL;DR: A simulation model used to project the probable health and economic consequences in the next two decades from a continued rise in obesity in two ageing populations--the USA and the UK used to find that effective policies to promote healthier weight also have economic benefits.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms, Pathophysiology, and Management of Obesity
TL;DR: Treatments for obesity include behavioral therapy, pharmacotherapy, and bariatric surgery, and some sequelae of obesity are reversed with weight loss.
Journal ArticleDOI
Energy Balance and Obesity
TL;DR: The interplay among energy intake, energy expenditure, and body energy stores is described and illustrates how an understanding of energy balance can help us develop strategies to reduce obesity.

TL;DR: It is called for a sustained worldwide effort to monitor, prevent, and control obesity and identifies several cost-effective policies that governments should prioritise for implementation.

Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence and trends in obesity among US adults, 1999-2008.
TL;DR: The increases in the prevalence of obesity previously observed do not appear to be continuing at the same rate over the past 10 years, particularly for women and possibly for men.

Overweight and obesity in the United States: prevalence and trends, 1960–1994
TL;DR: Between 1976–80 and 1988–94, the prevalence of obesity (BMI≥30.0) increased markedly in the US, in agreement with trends seen elsewhere in the world.

Increasing Prevalence of Overweight Among US Adults: The National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys, 1960 to 1991
TL;DR: Observed trends in overweight prevalence and body mass index of the US adult population suggest that the Healthy People 2000 objective of reducing the prevalence of overweight US adults to no more than 20% may not be met by the year 2000.

Obesity and the Environment: Where Do We Go from Here?
TL;DR: It is estimated that affecting energy balance by 100 kilocalories per day (by a combination of reductions in energy intake and increases in physical activity) could prevent weight gain in most of the population.
